Now 32, he's completed six Ironman triathlons, broken the world 24-hour single-speed record and twice won the European and British 12 hour championships.

He started racing in the hardtail category of the Dragon series and after a season he purchased a full suspension downhill bike. Gareth now races in the senior category and hopes to complete the 2009 Midlands super series. If you want to know about the big and the burly in the biking world, then ask G.
